If I HAD a press I'm sure I'd be saying the same ;oP But maybe soon I will! But MAJOR props on estabilshing such an organize bindery (for REAL)! P.S.

i hope you found some great stuff! i am looking for a better way to store the type i have...it's laying around in open trays and i have a box full of mixed type that i haven't even tried sorting (i got it with my press). i was going to switch over to solely photopolymer plates...but now i'm leaning towards buying some type when i order my new press.
